We all have proud moments as parents. First steps. First words. First lost tooth. First grand slam at a little league game.

I recently had a VERY proud moment as a mom.

One of my fav companies, Boon Inc, recently popped over a Boon Grip for us to try out.

I was beyond excited and my poor hubs was listing in as I was spouting out 101 ways we could use the new hook system. Parker was nearby and thought it would be a good idea to chime in with his thoughts on the subject.

"Mom, I think we should put it in the playroom, and use it to organize our Wii controllers!"

I have created a five year old organizing genius. His idea was far superior to any I had thought up. So we implemented Parker's first organizing project!

Using a level and some wall anchors, the hook installed quickly and easily, right next to the entertainment center in the playroom.

The next step was just to hang the WiiMotes and WiiWheels {using some ribbon}, on the hooks!

Super smart. Super simple! Super big smiles!

{yes, the wiimotes are loved in this house, and dirty!}

Of course, we just found one way out of the infinite options that are available for the hook. It's sleek, durable, kid friendly and versatile enough to work in any room of the home!

Boon Inc loves you too! Today, they are giving one of these sweet hook systems away to YOU!

I would use this for all my pups items we need in a quick snag. My husband and I don't have kids yet so Winston (our pup) is our "child". We have things of his we need to have organized to grab at a quick hand, leash, collar (he only wears it when outside), towel (to dry him off on wet and snowy days), toys, etc., clippers, brushes. I know.. i know spoiled right. This would be neat to utilize though!

I definitely would use it to organize all of my necklaces. Right now they get all tangled up and these hooks would work perfectly! I "liked" Boon Inc. and also "follow" them on Twitter! Thanks for this opportunity! :)

Honestly, I would use it the same way as you. All of our Wii remotes are in an unsightly boring plastic bin and the buttons always get pushed causing the batteries to drain faster. Your son is a genius!!

I love your (or rather your little's) idea to use it for wii remotes - we even have the perfect spot! It would also be so super duper awesome as a hook for backpacks and coats - something for which I have yet to find the perfect solution!

I would put it by the back door to hang the reuseable bags for the grocery store and sweatshirts for the kids to grab before going out the door and backpacks and anything needed for school or activities. I love this!!

Liked it on Facebook - there are so many ways I would use this. I think it would be great with the Wii's - like you. It would also be great in the garage as you enter into our house. So much can be organized there too!!

I need a place for my wii remotes too! they are currently shoved into my tv stand, which drives me nuts. I could also use it to organize my dog's leashes, or I could buy a few more and hang jewelry on them...

I check out their website and I LOVE the stackable caterpillar containers. I don't have kids yet, but what a great gift for a baby shower.

I would either use it at school to hang my jacket and coat on so they don't get student stuff all over them and for my emergency stuff. OR at home to hang my Wii stuff on or for my clothes for the next day. I need to get organized that way!

If I had the Boon I would use it to hang my jewelery, headbands and other accessories. I currently just throw them all in one drawer and do a scavenger hunt whenever I need one, so I think it would be cool and helpful.

I would love to put the Boon in my son's closet. He has tons of Halloween costumes...you know, for those "everyday I'm a super hero" years. But the material is too delicate for coat hooks and they get ripped...this would be an excellent solution.

I wonder how much weight they can hold up. I would use them for my bookbags and other assorted things that always end up littering my floors. In fact, if they come in other colors eg, black, it might be a good idea to completely cover a bag of a corridor door with these and hang up every riff-raff that annoys you out of sight.

It's so cute! That's what I love about Boon products...they are so attractive while staying super functional. I'm going to be boring and say that I would put it inside my kitchen door, to store jackets and hats when we come inside. Right now we are using the hooks that stick to the wall....except they don't stick too well sometimes. This is a much better (and more attractive!) choice!

I have become determined to organize my home since I have found this blog. Thanks for all the great ideas! I would use this hook for my kids dress up clothes,or by the wood stove for drying hats and mittens....options, options!jo_josephson@embarqmail.com

We have no coat closet (infact the only 2 closets in our house are in our bedroom, and the heater closet in the utility room, the kid's room doesn't even have one, we had to use an armoire) so I think I would use this in my bedroom to hang our coats so the coat racks in the living room can be saved for guests and only 1 of our coats each, not all of them piled. Or maybe I would use it for purses so they're not just piled in the closet. Decisions decisions...

I have lots of ideas where I would use the Grip. That is a very cool product!! I would use it in my pantry to hang my recycable grocery bags; in the bathroom to hang used towels; by the door to hang the dog leash, my purse, umbrellas, etc.; In the coat closet to hang winter hats, scarves, mittens, etc.
